[this post](techrights.org/n/2023/09/26/Go) by roy schestowitz is spot on:

> THE tendency in some schools is to "prepare adolescent kids for the world" and by the world they mean industry. They then train pupils to become dependent on brands and proprietary products/disservices, sometimes from another country or even another continent. In most cases, both the country and company should be considered hostile. The "tools" being 'taught' (de facto indoctrination) are instruments of occupation and any intrigue boils down to shallow stupidity if not selfishness, even bribery (sometimes the decision-makers are bribed before or after making such decisions on someone else's behalf). Parents can help by intervening; many responsible adults can make sure kids aren't 'taught' to become slaves but instead to become trailblazers. Insist that classrooms offer education to children rather than offer children to corporations.

meanwhile the german "influencer" teacher "bob blume" is suggesting that to teach children goethes faust, they should let their pupils describe what "dr. faust would post as picture on instagram".

the absolute state of germany.

@bonifartius this is not specific to Germany. this is the common case for the most countries. the new brave world where mega coprorations impose their hegemony everywhere is kind of neocolonialism where the enslaving and making people dependent is not plain and clear, but more subtle.
